No polyphony in Cardinal on Windows 10, FL Studio 20

Open DannySlelfmam opened this issue 2 years ago • 10 comments

With a fully polyphonic chain set up and a MIDI out to Cardinal, there is no polyphony. I have selected multiple voices in the MIDI module, using MPE, with no ability to play more than one note at a time. Recreated the chain in VCV 2 standalone and it worked fine.

Can you share the patch perhaps? Without it this is impossible to diagnose.

Sorry about that. I tested polyphony with a simple patch here. As you can see, MIDI is routed to Cardinal, and I have (4) polyphonic voices set up with MPE as the polyphony mode. To be clear, I have not recreated this problem in another DAW. I'm running FL 20.9.2 image

Macro oscillator module isn't polyphonic ...

Please just use the module browser with polyphonic as the filter tag. You will then see all the modules that support polyphony.

I recreated the same chain using Bogaudio's polyphonic oscillator as well as the purple VCV polyphonic oscillator with the rest of the chain intact before using macro oscillator. Neither of the previous two chains worked, hence trying the macro. In fact, I had specifically searched the tags polyphonic and oscillator when initially searching as you said-- yet neither allowed polyphony.

Can you show the Host MIDI settings/menu?

This patch should very much work. Have you tried it in other Hosts?

Here are the FL MIDI and Host Midi module settings.

FL Studio has no MPE support. That topic has been a long discussion in the forums, but it seems Image-Line team won't prioritize it (well, at least it's on the to-do list).

Full disclosure, I tested on each of the 4 MIDI types in the Host MIDI module. None worked.

What about the Miscelaneous Channel Settings? Disable mono if enabled, in the Polyphony section.
